light on the fall of the cia director, david petraeus. "time" says there was an internal debate within the fbi about whether to report the affair to the white house, but because there were no national security concerns, the decision was made not to do it. the story goes on to say that paula broadwell, petraeus' mistress, had been approached about a senate run in north carolina, but petraeus angrily rejected the idea and told her she shouldn't sell out, whatever that means. "time" also reports that broadwell tried to recruit lance armstrong this summer to ride bikes with general petraeus for the general's 60th birthday. that never happened. we know how it's ended up for everybody in this big affair. why don't we start for us about this. explain to me the senate thing. that's fascinating. >> at the aspen security conference during the summer, we have great reporting where she was having cocktails after dinner with six or seven close companions and she revealed that she'd been approached by north carolina moneymen, saying that you should rea
